Publisher Onboarding: Reclaiming Value, Redefining Reach

Disruption or Renaissance?

🧭 A New Role for Publishers

We believe publishers are not the enemy — they are potential allies in a new literary economy. The tBook system doesn’t exclude capital; it reimagines its purpose. In this model, publishers become patrons, amplifiers, and strategic whales who invest in culture rather than gatekeep it.

💡 What You’ve Been Spending — What You Could Be Creating

• Traditional marketing budgets often exceed $50,000 per title. That money goes into ads, influencers, and distribution channels that may or may not convert. In the tBook model, that same budget could mint 50,000 tBooks — each with embedded value, each a self-marketing asset.
• Old model: Spend money to sell books.
• tBook model: Spend money to give books — and let value grow.

📚 tBooks as Marketing Assets

Every tBook is a bearer of value. When you give one away, you’re not losing money — you’re seeding the market. Readers who hold their tBooks increase scarcity. Those who redeem them keep liquidity flowing. Either way, your catalog becomes a living economy.

• No more sunk costs.
• No more chasing impressions.
• Every copy is an investment.

🤝 Co-Minting with Authors

Publishers can partner with authors to co-mint tBooks, sharing redemption rights or holding reserve copies. This aligns incentives: publishers push reach, authors retain control, and both benefit from appreciation.

• Authors keep sovereignty.
• Publishers gain equity.
• Readers become stakeholders.

🏛️ Imprints as Micro-Economies

Launch branded imprints (e.g., Penguin tBooks, Harper Crypto) with their own token pools. Create genre-specific scarcity curves. Build communities around literary niches. Your brand becomes a market — not just a logo.

🔄 Redemption & ROI

Hold tBooks. Redeem them. Trade them. Use them to fund future titles. The tBook system turns publishing into a circular economy where every copy has potential yield.

• Marketing becomes asset deployment.
• Distribution becomes investment.
• Publishing becomes participatory.

✊ The Ethos We Share

We believe in literature as a cultural force. We believe in authorship as a form of ownership. We believe readers deserve more than access — they deserve equity. If you believe that too, you’re already part of the tBook revolution.
